Hey I've been reading a lot on here lately but haven't ever seen anyone paint their rain guards body color. Would that look weird or did I just miss it. I have a 2013 taffeta white and was thinking of doing it myself but wasn't sure how it would look.

Don't do it..... It looks ugly...
But if you really want to see how it looks like, you could get a can of plasti dip and paint it.. The white color plasti dip is very close matched to Taffeta white color.

I'm with tak. Try plastidip first and see how you like it. If that works for you then paint match it.

You could get a white tint overlay for them that way it's still transparent and would kinda be like an accent or something

What is this white tint overlay?? does it look smooth or does it have the little round holes in it to see through and look rough from close up?

Also what about using it as like a vinyl strip across the top of the windshield. I haven't seen that done either. Would look odd too?

Vinyl strip across the top of a window may be illegal. Besides that, when you roll the windows down, the sunblock goes with it.

I have a windshield vinyl. Great for blocking the sun in the top part of the windshield when visors may not cover it all.

I wouldn't do it cuz it'll block visibility.
Being a tall guy, I'm was already having trouble seeing around my A-pillar.
